Thank you @gahler_michael for your long-standing support for Taiwan.
As chairman of the Formosa-Club, the association of chairs of Parl, Friendship Groups with Taiwan I condemn the action of the Chinese communists, sanctioning 4 New Zealand parliamentarians for visiting Taiwan. Likewise affected some years ago I express full solidarity with them.

Once again this week, I had the opportunity to exchange views with Mr. Shieh, Taiwan’s representative to the European Union in Brussels. Our regular dialogue is of great importance for our parliamentary work and for strengthening the close partnership between Europe and Taiwan.
Taiwan is not only a key partner for Europe in promoting democracy, the rule of law, and stability in the Indo-Pacific, but also an indispensable player in future technologies. In particular, Taiwanese semiconductor investments in Germany are helping to strengthen Europe’s technological sovereignty, create high-quality jobs, and make our supply chains more resilient.
Maintaining a close and regular exchange with our Taiwanese partners is therefore essential — economically, technologically, and strategically.

I was very pleased to speak with #Taiwan’s Deputy Foreign Minister François Chih-chung Wu and Dr. Shieh Jhy-Wey, Taiwan’s Representative to the #EU, at a reception in the European Parliament.
At a time of profound global upheaval, close and trust-based dialogue with like-minded partners is more important than ever. We are united by shared fundamental democratic convictions, economic potential, and a clear commitment to a rules-based and multilateral international order.
As a Member of the European Parliament, I remain committed to fostering trusting cooperation and taking a clear stand in support of Taiwan.
